FH and I were going over the rest of all the payments for everything. And right now we need to come up wiyh $13,000 for November...
Are we the only ones in this boat... I feel like it's Alot!!!!!! I know we have our tax return, but WOW!!!
We are right there with you too!! My parents are picking up the reception costs but everything else is being paid by FH and I. I created a payment plan worksheet so I can make monthly payments to my vendors so I can have less of an ouch factor in Nov.

I'm doing bottles of wine for favors too! How early do you think you can buy them??? Is now too early????
I don't know if it's too early to get right now. I don't think wine goes bad. I'm just not getting it until Sept/Oct because I would have nowhere to put 100 bottles of wine.

I want to do a Grooms cake. I just hope I can afford it by then..
As for the gifts, I got my BMs Robes that I will have monogrammed, and tote bags to put them in. I want to get them necklaces, but we'll see....
As for the guys, still no clue.

For gifts I'm paying for the girls hair but for the MOH's I'm paying for hair and makeup. I'm also getting a grooms cake. I don't think they're that expensive. I've heard about $200-$300. I think I'm getting a cake that resembles a case of bud light. He loves his BL
